Altered Domino

Another UK's Swap.

I inked my dominoes around the edges and sides with black Promarker.
Coloured red ribbon with black promarker to get  a purplish colour.
Glued ribbon to the inside of the domino before attaching the accordion fold piece.
Cut the pages to fit inside the folds and added the content as requested by my swapee.
Added Purple and Copper patterned cardstock to back of accordion fold.
Cut copper sheet  for the front and back covers and added deep scratch marks with a ball tool.
Glued ribbon around the edges of the domino for a finished look.
Added feet to the bottom of the dominoes to complete the look.

I struggled with the theme but I am pleased with the finished piece.

Grimm's Fairytale ATC Cinderalla Theme.

 Grimm's Fairytlale ATC
  I participated  in a swap on UKS.There were 10 of us in a group we each made 10 ATC's, which the talented Rebecca then made into an ATC book.Mine is in the post and I can't wait to see it.I didn't realise how many of our modern Fairytales, are actually Grimm's or how many they wrote.

I chose Cinderella as I knew there would be plenty of images etc availible.I found two cut files on the UKS Silhouette Forum , which were perfect for my theme.I cut out the Pumpkin Coach, Clock and a tiny Shoe .I added Glossy accents to the shoe to give the impression of a glass slipper.I drew some swirls with a glue pen and added glitter,for a magical effect as the clock struck midnight.

Alice in Wonderland ATC Swap.

I made these for a swap on UKS this was my first attempt at ATC's.I really enjoyed making these. Sorry about the poor pic I had to scan them .
